Brief Summary
PURPOSE: The purpose of the study is to investigate the effect of the breather device on ventilatory effort and in patients with myogenic temporomandibular joint disorders To investigate the effect of the breather device on craniocervical angle and oral Health quality in patients with myogenic temporomandibular joint disorders BACKGROUND: TMDs affect between 5% and 12% of the population which is presented by symptoms such as pain in the masticatory muscles with a decrease in the mandible's movement. Other symptoms include ear pain, headache, joint sounds with mandible movement, and/or functional limitations in the jaw like swallowing difficulties commonly found. (Hatice ., et al 2023) Increased prevalence of TMDs has been linked to physical, psychological, and hormonal changes throughout pubertal development. The age predisposes to the development of masticatory system problems in students since symptoms peak between the ages of 20 and 40 years. Women of breeding age are the majority of TMD sufferers. The prevalence of TMD increases globally throughout adolescence and may vary from 7% to 30% of the population (Loster ., et al2017). Alterations of body posture, upper thoracic breathing pattern, and mouth breathing constitute causal factors for the overuse of the accessory inspiratory musculature, which generates hyperactivity and consequently, alteration of head position, and mandibular traction. (Kim., et al 2017) HYPOTHESES: There will be no significant effect of the breather device on ventilatory effort in patients with myogenic temporomandibular joint disorders. There will be no significant effect of the breather device on a craniocervical angle and oral Health quality in patients with myogenic temporomandibular joint disorders RESEARCH QUESTION: Does the breather device can improve ventilatory effort in patients with myogenic temporomandibular joint disorders?.

Study Arms (2)
Participant Group/Arm
EXPERIMENTALrThirty patients, will receive a combined treatment program containing respiratory muscle training by the breather device with a conventional exercise program for MTMD for four consecutive weeks (3 sessions/ week)
Control group/Arm
OTHERThirty patients, who will receive a conventional exercise program for MTMD for four consecutive weeks (3 sessions/ week).
Interventions
investigate the effect of the breather device on ventilatory effort and in patients with myogenic temporomandibular joint disorders
-Therapeutic Ultrasound (US): Ultrasound therapy will be applied at the site of pain over the TMJ area with Frequency: 1 MHz, Mode: continuous, Duration: 6 min. each session 2-Myofascial release for masticatory muscles 3-The self-exercise Self exercise: include simplified myo-functional therapy. 10 repetitions, three: five times per day 4-Techniques to correct deglutition: swallowing a small amount of water and speaking while holding a semi-hard small object between the dental arches 5-Relaxation exercise of Masticator Muscle:10 repetitions, three. 6-Strain-counterstain (SCS): applied on the tender or trigger points of neck muscles on improving pain and pressure pain sensitivity in neck muscles
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Sixty female patients who fulfilled the RDC/TMD criteria of myofascial pain and the presence of parafunctional habits, such as bruxism, teeth grinding, mouth breathing, and lip biting.
- The Patient's ages will range from 20 to 40 years.
- Patients with a waist-height ratio measuring less than 0.5. 5- Patients with a craniocervical angle measuring from 30 to 50° (Bo-Been et al., 2016).
- the patients have points from 20-65 on the Fonseca Anamnestic Index (FAI) 7- the patients have the willingness to participate in this study. 8- All patients will sign a consent form before starting the study.
You may not qualify if:
- Patients will meet one of the following criteria will be excluded from the study:

- The patient has Surgery or trauma in the spine and upper limb.
- Patients suffering from rheumatic diseases and other severe comorbidities.
- Patients suffering from any respiratory diseases (restrictive, obstructive, suppurative diseases).
- Patients suffering from neurological disorders affecting respiratory muscles or any muscular dystrophies
